Strawberry Coconut Banana Smoothies
Happy Monday, lovelies! I hope you enjoyed the weekend. We had a couple of exquisitely warm afternoons here the last few days, quite welcome after the way the weather has been toying with us. I suddenly can’t wait for strawberry season to kick into full gear, and have a million recipes on the brain for the sweet little, luscious berries. This morning it was this creamy Strawberry, Coconut Banana Smoothie.
I’ve become quite the fan of coconut milk; I love the flavor and creamy texture it adds to dishes, and it’s one of my favorite ways to thicken fruit smoothies. A handful of berries, banana, some thick Greek yogurt, and a splash of coconut milk, and you’re on your way to healthy morning bliss.

This was tasty! I wasn’t sure if you meant canned coconut milk or coconut milk you would eat with cereal. I had some leftover canned milk from a dinner recipe – it made the smoothie creamy and delicious! I also used a ripe, fresh banana, and it worked out well. Thanks 🙂

I’m so glad you liked it! You can use either… I probably use coconut milk from a carton more often, but if we have leftover canned coconut milk from making curry or another dish, I’ll use that instead.
